I brought my skis in for a tune up, and paid extra for a ‘custom’ hand wax and rush service (with their definition of rush being five days).
When I picked up my skits, the bottoms were a mess. It looked like they used candle wax, and left most of it on. Wax was still on the edges as well. There was a gash on the top of the skis that was NOT there when I dropped them off. When I pointed all this out to them, they insisted they checked all tunes before going out the door — I am assuming this is done by a blind person? They offered to do it again but I was not about to leave my gear there again to get further ruined. I tried to give a local shop a chance, and will never step foot inside this store again.

Epic customer service !!! After calling ski market and sun and sport or whatever that terrible corporations name is, I used my Unilocal app to find these guys. I remember seeing this place disappear from the Wakefield square area and being bummed another small business had caved… Or so I thought ! They located inside the bicycle store on Main Street stoneham. I called and explained that I was leaving in the am for Breckinridge Colorado and was trying to get a quick Wax /​tuneup for my skis and was there anyway they could do this? He said sure no problem come on in! I don’t know where we have come as a materialistic consuming society, but I miss the days where you can walk into a place without a fucking appointment and still get serviced. Remember that america? Those were the good olé days. My reps at the store couldn’t have been nicer and even though they charge an extra $ 11 for the rush, it’s well worth it. They did a great job on my hell and back skis and I picked up a nice travel bag for my skis as well. The location is great Thera parking on the side street as well and they are certainly here to help. Small business is absolutely where it’s at, suck it corporate america and your terrible chains.

Brought in my board to have them ptex a couple of deep scratches on the base. The owner convinced me due to the dreadful state of my edges to have a full tuning done for $ 53. Brought the board home and noticed that the guy who worked on it didn’t scrape all the wax off. There was also a spot of wax and residue from the work order sticker on the topsheet The ptexing and the edges looked good but for over $ 50 I shouldn’t have to finish off the wax job at home.

I ended up at this ski shop by pure accident. A coworker of mine had recommended a place around here but I somehow remembered the wrong name and ski shack seem the closest to what I remembered. I drove here late on a Friday night just before they closed, while we were on the way to Sunday River for the weekend. We had decided that we wanted to buy our gear this time around. These guys apparently had just sent out an email to that list with a deal of 2-​for-​1 on all gear but the signs weren’t even posted in the store yet. After browsing around for a few minutes, the sales rep didn’t want us to leave empty-​handed so he offered the deal to us. Both my husband and I bought boots, skis, and poles. We got a great deal and even better, when I realized the boots I had purchased were way too big the owner, Nick, took the boots back and ordered me a pair that fit perfectly! I’m so thankful! This place is really laid-​back and has a great understanding of customer service and the value of a customer!

I went to the Ski & Sport Shack recently for the first time to buy a pair of ski boots. I talked to Alex and told him what I was looking for and how much money I wanted to spend. He was very helpful and spent a good amount of time showing me different models and having me try them on. He never pressured me and always respected my price point. I ended up getting a 2012 model of atomic ski boots and the owner gave me a great deal. I had some issues with the size of the boot after I made the purchase and Alex went out of his way to help me with the problem. The customer service at Ski & Sport Shack was great and is the reason I will continue to come back again and again.

A pinnacle of customer service from a retail store! I had a friendly personalized experience while renting skis and other gear. Pricing was amazing! They were very accommodating when my ski plans changed due to weather. They we’re happy to let me use my equipment another day without charging extra for more time. The owner is proud of his store and it shows with the excellent customer service provided by everyone. I would recommend to all to rent from here. Just call ahead, they will make sure they have gear for you before you make the drive.

Recently moved to N Shore and was looking for someone to do custom work on my ski boots. Checked out Dalbello’s website and they listed Ski & Sports Shack as a dealer. Called this place three times and talked to three different people and no one could help. Kept telling me the only guy who knows about boots is Nick. So I left three messages with not one call back. Finally went to Ski Stop in Westwood and they hooked me up quickly, realizing the ski season is not endless. Awesome experience! 10 days later I get a text from Nick letting me know he got my message. Couldn’t even call. Must be rolling in money and doesn’t need new customers.

Took my daughter to look at new snowboard gear and we found everything we needed. They have a by back program that will help as we grow…
Friendly and knowledgeable staff.
I plan to do most of my Christmas shopping here!
Definitely worth a stop by if you’re looking for gear

I have nothing but delightful things to say about this place. I went in with a couple of friends to pick up some very affordable and decent rental skis before a weekend trip and whoops, ending up buying new skis and boots for myself. They had a great sale going on and I couldn’t say no. Low and behold a couple weeks later I realized that the boots I’d bought were too big and I’d overlooked it during the blissful, new-​boot honeymoon. I’m an instructor and ski at least 2x a week, so I couldn’t really let it go. I called and the owner assured me that they guarantee their boot fits and to bring them in. I brought them in and Devin was super helpful and understanding about the whole thing. After trying to reshape the ones I had, they ended up setting me up with the smaller shell and fitting the new ones to my feet.
Will definitely be back and sending all of my skiing and instructor friends here too!

Service was great here. I had a pair of new bindings I got elsewhere and needed help mounting it on to my board for a trip in a few days. I called the store, the owner was very friendly, set me up to work with Devon, whom I met in person and was also pretty courteous. Usually around this time of the year it takes 7 days for turnaround, but he rushed it in 2 days and charged a very decent price. I was hesitant to come here at first because there was no review of this place, but I’m glad I did. Thanks to Devon, he knew what he was doing, no hassle in and out.
Checking around the store, while there were some skis and skateboarding selections, the store seemed to be more geared for snowboarding. The guys that work there also seemed pretty relaxed, like a mom-​and-​pop store.
